2. Distillate (motor fuel) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distillate_(motor_fuel)

   Distillate was withdrawn from the market as cheaper and higher-grade gasoline and diesel fuels reached the markets. In time, "distillate" came to describe lighter fractions of diesel and fuel oil , with "No. 1 distillate" and "No. 2 distillate" referring to the lighter fractions of both products, albeit with different characteristics between ...

3. Winter diesel fuel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_diesel_fuel

   In North America, gas stations offer two types of diesel fuel – according to ASTM D975 [5] these are named No. 1 and No. 2 fuel. No. 1 fuel (similar to kerosene) has a natural CFPP of -40 °C but it is more expensive than No. 2 fuel. Adding No. 1 fuel will lower the CFPP of No. 2 fuel – adding 10% will lower the CFPP temperature by about 5 ...

4. Fuel oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_oil

   An oil tanker taking on fuel, or "bunkering" Fuel oil is any of various fractions obtained from the distillation of petroleum (crude oil). Such oils include distillates (the lighter fractions) and residues (the heavier fractions). Fuel oils include heavy fuel oil (bunker fuel), marine fuel oil (MFO), furnace oil (FO), gas oil (gasoil), heating oils (such as home heating oil), diesel fuel, and ...

   To distinguish these types, petroleum-derived diesel is sometimes called petrodiesel in some academic circles. [1] Diesel is a high-volume product of oil refineries. [2] In many countries, diesel fuel is standardized. For example, in the European Union, the standard for diesel fuel is EN 590.

6. Ultra-low-sulfur diesel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-low-sulfur_diesel

   Sale of Grade 1 diesel is optional at retail outlets. Grade 2, also known as GASOIL COMUN (common diesel fuel), is intended for the bulk of diesel fuelled vehicles. Grade 2 diesel fuel is available with 2 different sulfur levels depending on the population density of the location where it is retailed. Grade 3 diesel fuel, also known as GASOIL ...

7. Gel point (petroleum) - Wikipedia

   On the other hand, the gel point of crude oil is dependent upon the composition of the crude oil as some crude oils contain more or less components that dissolve the paraffins. In some cases the gel point of a crude oil may be correlated from the pour point. [1] [2] The gel points of some common petroleum products are as follows:
